The Catholic Bishop of Sokoto, Most Reverend Matthew

Kukah, has urged the incoming government to keep Nigerians

alive before embarking on fulfilling electoral promises.

Kukah who stated this in his Easter message noted that while

the country is preparing for the next administration, the

pressing need for the incoming President, Bola Tinubu,

should be to address the core issues facing the nation.

He expressed hope that the next government would recognize

that Nigeria’s most urgent task is not the construction of

physical infrastructure, but rather the establishment of a

strong foundation of social justice, equality, and respect for

human rights.
